2dn wheakory -> mailman on both of those.
(or just chown -R mailman:mailman /home/mailman)

That should get the files, but the wrapper code will still want to
use wheakory. You will have to rebuild that, but a "reinstall"
isn't necessary. I'm sure there's something in the FAQ abou this.
BTW, I'd recommend using user/group "mailman" as it's the canonical
uid/gid.
